Congrats Mike and Tiffany! A Providence Biltmore Wedding!

Hey hey wedding season is rocking!  This fall was crazy, but crazy awesome!  This is my second to last 2014 wedding and it was A-MAZ-ING!  Mike is my cousin so I was so excited to shoot this wedding!  I had Kate Guillette with me to second and I think we about nailed it.  We started the day with the bride and groom getting ready then moved onto the always gorgeous Cathedral of SS Peter and Paul.  Thankfully while we were in church the rain let up and the sun actually came out during the formals!  We hit up Roger Williams and Prospect Park and our timing was great at both!  The foliage at Roger Williams was outstanding and the sun peaked through while at Prospect Park.  PERFECT!    We also worked with Mike Picard of Mike Picard Motion Pictures to capture this beautiful day and a former student (yes, how old am I?!), Aimee Bacon, made the gorgeous cake.  We finished up our day at the Biltmore for a stellar reception with an unbelievable amount of dancing!  Jon Berube coming in huge for non stop action on the dance floor, and, being the groom’s cousin, I most defiantly got my butt out there and busted a move with the best of them (yes mostly with camera in hand, it’s an addiction).  All in all it was an amazing day and I wish Tiffany and Mike the best of luck!
Enjoy!

Congrats Liz & Jake! A Chamberlain Farm Wedding!

Welcome back!  Sorry for the delay… small computer blip, lots of colorful language, but alas, this fabulous blog post.  Let’s not let that rain on the parade of happiness I’m about to share with you.  Liz and Jake were that beautiful couple who’s engagement session I shared a few weeks back.  The two crazy kids tied the knot among a fabulous group of friends and family at Chamberlain Farm in Berkeley, MA.  I was a bit shocked that this was my first wedding at a great venue super close to home.  Even through the rain and wet grounds, the staff worked hard to keep it safe and beautiful.  The day started of with A LOT of rain.  But, thankfully, the heavy stuff was out of the way by mid afternoon!  That left us with some lingering clouds and mist… twist my arm says the photographer!  The rain didn’t stop any of the love and support for Liz and Jake.  What a sweet event to be a part of.  Liz’s dad is a retired florist who did a phenomenal job with the flowers and the maple syrup favors!  Friends make the romantic cake and guests mad libbed a personalized message to Liz and Jake.  This topped off with a super fireworks display.  Wow.  If that isn’t starting off the rest of your life on the right foot I don’t know what is!  Enough banter!  Onto the photos!
Enjoy!

So, please… enjoy!

Congrats Lee & Kevin!

Welcome back!
Hope you are having an awesome summer!  I am loving this weather!  Though I haven’t gotten to enjoy it nearly enough!  LOL
Anyhow… a big welcome back to the blog for Lee and Kevin!  You may remember Lee and Kevin’s super fun Providence shoot with lil pup Clay?  How cute were they?!  If you thought they were cute then, you will agree with me that they were STUNNING on their wedding day!  And what a day it was!  A big, huge thanks to Angela Greenlaw Photography for being my fabulous second… primary when I had to scoot out early!  My dear husband chose the Forth of July to have his appendix act up, and rupture so this photog had to bounce out a bit early!  No worries for Lee, Kevin or myself as Angela is a fantastic photog herself!  So big thanks to her for making sure all of Lee and Kevin’s fun moments were captured with excellent style!
Lee and Kevin’s wedding took place at the ever beautiful Ocean Cliff in Newport, RI.  Thankfully we did formals beforehand and had lots of time to relax and really capture the beauty of Lee and Kevin both through formals and their touching ceremony.  There are big smiles on everyone’s faces throughout this awesome wedding.  Ocean Cliff had an amazing sunset and I loved the Game of Throne’s table names!
Thanks so much to Lee and Kevin for having me to photograph your big day… and best of luck!

Enjoy!

Congrats Jim & Liz!

Welcome back on this stormy Monday!  I absolutely love thunderstorms… though I can honestly say, Shelby (our Olde English Bulldogge) is the total opposite.  She even snuggled up to Elise for comfort… though I’m not sure how much Elise could actually protect Shelby…  Anyhow…
At the beginning of this month I had the opportunity to photograph Liz and Jim’s Linden Place Wedding.  How beautiful!  This was my first event at Linden Place so early in the summer and the roses were amazing!  What a beautiful evening!  Jim and Liz are so lucky to have a great group of friends and family!  The trio of flower girls was a lil out of control on the cuteness scale.  Don’t say I didn’t warn you!
Enjoy!

Congrats Jen and Vic!

Welcome back!
I’m dying to post these photos!  Jen and Vic, you may remember from our awesome engagement shoot at Point Judith, got married in September!  Yay!  What a beautiful wedding it was!  The day was forecast to be rainy and yucky.  So Jen’s mom hung FOUR sets of Rosary Beads outside for good weather, and, it worked!  It was awesome out (a lil sticky, but awesome!)!  We started at Holy Name Church, continued on the Fall River Carousel for some photos and finished up at the Newport Marriott!   What a great group of friends and family these two have!  Big thanks to second shooter Marisa for helping me out!
Enjoy!
